Good morning NAIA hoops fans! As you’re sipping on your coffee this morning let us catch you up on what is happening around the NAIA Hoops world!

We start the morning off by heading up to Iowa to congratulate two coaches on hitting coaching milestones.

Tonight’s 107-86 win over Missouri Valley was Coach Henry’s 400th career win! Congratulations Coach and here’s to many more to come! @WPUAthletics @HeartSportsNews @NAIA @NAIAHoopsReport pic.twitter.com/BYb9D6fwGc

These two used to have some great conference battles before William Penn made the jump to NAIA DI. They are both great coaches, who have done great things at their Universities!

We also had a couple NAIA programs defeat NCAA D2 teams this weekend:

Rocky defeated crosstown rival MSU Billings 79-70 Saturday night. Four Battlin' Bears scored in the double digits.

The game counted as an exhibition for both teams.#BATTLINBEARS https://t.co/VToMUIk5pC

Yes sir!!!

Great win against the defending RMAC champions. The guys played hard the entire game and focused on the details. I’m proud of these guys because we fought through a tough 7 min stretch and still found a way to win. @NAIAHoopsReport another D2 upset! #E4L https://t.co/buI1DZSlKU
